The fansite Team Booboo Seth interviewed Booboo (we’ve just discovered that we have been spelling his name wrong for months. It’s one word.) Also of note, in the background at the table is Booboo’s dad, Nils. The person who sucker punched Booboo must have had a death wish, Nils is HUGE and Booboo is a martial arts expert. Team Booboo Seth was also on hand when the punching incident took place an have their report here. Their interview of Booboo is below.
Eclipse Premiere Date Confirmed
April 4, 2010
It has just been confirmed that the premiere for The Twilight Saga: Eclispe will take place on June 24, 2010. There was word circulating yesterday that the premiere would be held at Grauman’s Chineese Theatre on June 24, but our confirmation from Summit specifically stated that the location hasn’t been finalized. So don’t book your plane tickets just yet! But go ahead and save the date.
Boo Boo Stewart Signing Has Unfortunate End
April 4, 2010
Yesterday Boo Boo Stewart did a fan signing in the Richmond Mall in Vancouver Cananda for fans(see above). All went well until (we are assuming it was Boo Boo) got sucker punched. According to the Mammarazzi1 twitter (the twitter run by Boo Boo’s mom for her kids, Boo Boo and Fivel)”hey its a bummer that someone thought itd be cool to sucker punch me chased him down held him until police came no biggie had a great time” and then in response to a local entertainment photographer who covered the event “thanks, had a great time even though i got punched, it all ended up ok, i’m ok thanks to everyone.” At first we weren’t clear whether the person who was attacked was Boo Boo or his mom, but sentiment seems to indicate that it was Boo Boo (who happens to be incredibly skilled in marital arts). The motive and mental well-being of the attacker is unconfirmed, but clearly they’ve never seen the size of Boo Boo’s dad.

Alex Meraz, A Photoshoot, and a Trip Down Twilight Memory Lane
April 3, 2010
Just Jared has an article up covering a photo shoot Alex Meraz did with two other up-in-coming Hollywood actors.
“A trio of young gents are featured in the “L.A. Story” photo spread from the April/May 2010 issue of Da Man Magazine (with Vampire Diaries star Paul Wesley on the cover) — Twilight werewolf
Alex Meraz, Colton Haynes from the upcoming ABC series The Gates and artist/editor Eric France.”
Now, for those of you who have been following Twilight for awhile, we have a trivia question for you. Why did this story cause Pel to do a spit take. If you’ve ever attended a Lexicon Movie Madness Panel at a Twilight Convention you’ll know why. Hint: Paul Wesley and Eric France weren’t what caused the spit take. (In fact just to make it interesting, the first person who posts what Pel judges to be the bast answer on why she did a spit take will get a free copy of the Twilight Graphic Novel from us.)
Anyway, congrats to the guys and here’s to successful careers.

The Novel That Must Not Be Named: A Clarification
April 2, 2010
Just to be ABUNDANTLY clear, because apparently someone who we have encountered before seems to think we are referencing her piece of fan-fiction and has issued a press release to indicate the same. When Lori Joffs stated the following to MTV “About 90 percent of the fandom is just excited to have anything,” said Lori Joffs, co-creator of Twilight Lexicon. “It’s the small little bit of about 10 percent of fans who are interested in another story. The story that must not be named.” Said novel that Lori was referencing was Midnight Sun, which the Lexicon routinely, jokingly calls “Dark High Noon” or “The Novel That Must Not Be Named” in order for Stephenie Meyer not to see the title in print. It’s an inside joke like in Harry Potter where if people say Voldemort they think it’s bad luck. Lori wasn’t talking about a piece of fan-fiction that this adult woman thinks she can publish for profit and make into a movie because she doesn’t like copyright laws and twists the law’s meaning to serve her own interpretation which is completely without legal merit or understanding.
Below is the FULL CONTEXT of Lori’s comments to MTV, which make it more than obvious that Lori and MTV reporter Terri Schwartz both knew that Lori was talking about Midnight Sun and nothing else.
“Amid the excitement over the announcement Tuesday morning (March 30) that Stephenie Meyer would be releasing a new “Twilight” novella, “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner,” on June 5, some fans were upset that the book was not “Midnight Sun.” Twilighters shared their opinions with MTV News on Twitter and in the comments, and their reactions ranged from understanding to angry.
“About 90 percent of the fandom is just excited to have anything,” said Lori Joffs, co-creator of Twilight Lexicon. “It’s the small little bit of about 10 percent of fans who are interested in another story. The story that must not be named.”
The “Midnight Sun” controversy started back in August 2008 after half of the novel — a retelling of “Twilight” from Edward Cullen’s perspective — leaked onto the Web. Meyer made a statement on her blog saying she felt personally violated by the fact her work was leaked and that the novel was put on hold indefinitely.”
We are not linking to the offending party’s website because frankly we don’t want to give her any more publicity, but in case any news media picks up on her press release our position in this matter is there for them to see and we are not further misrepresented or misquoted.
We are also disallowing comments on this post because this is a clarification of what has always been our position on the matter and don’t wish to engage in a public debate.
